  • This sounds a lot like every framework, 20 years ago you could have written that about rails.

    Which IMO makes sense because if code isn’t solving anything interesting then you can dynamically generate it relatively easily, and it’s easy to get demos up and running, but neither can help you solve interesting problems.

    Which isn’t to say it won’t have a major impact on software for decades, especially low-effort apps.




  • This has been true for a long time, CPU sockets don’t last long enough to make upgrades worth it, unless you are constantly upgrading. Whenever i’ve built a “futureproof” desktop with a mid-high end GPU, by the time I hit performance problems I needed a new motherboard to fit the new CPU anyway. Only really upgradable components are storage and ram, but you can do that in your laptop too.

    The main advantage of Desktops is still that you get much more performance for your money and can decide where it goes if you build it yourself.
